Risk Reduction Program

The Risk Reduction Program (RRP) is designed to decrease Soldiers' high-risk behaviors (HRB) thus increasing Soldier and mission readiness. This program focuses on effective use of installation resources and coordinated efforts between commanders and installation agencies to identify high-risk behavior patterns and to implement effective interventions.

The Risk Reduction Program Coordinator works in concert with the Army Substance Abuse Program and Installation Prevention Team (IPT) staff to implement, facilitate and coordinate the Risk Reduction Program policies. The IPT is composed of many installation base agencies to assist the Soldier population. The RRPC collects and analyzes data in relations to high risk behaviors. Issues analyzed provide command with possible resolutions to unit high risk behaviors.

The Risk Reduction Program also offers the Unit Risk Inventory (URI) and the Reintegration Unit Risk Inventory (R-URI). These surveys are anonymous questionnaires designed to screen for high risk behaviors and attitudes that compromise unit readiness. The URI is administered to the unit no later than 30 days prior to deployment or to non-deploying units annually; the R-URI is administered to redeploying Soldiers 60-180 days after redeployment. The results of the URI/R-URI will be used to adjust training and prevention efforts within the unit to reduce high-risk behaviors. The URI is also a great tool for incoming commanders to assess the climate within their new unit.
